Official Mascot of the 13th ASEAN School Games


 
The mascot is inspired by the "Red-shanked Douc Langur," a rare and endangered species classified in the Red Book of Vietnam, honored by wildlife conservation organizations as the "queen" of primate species.

Son Tra Peninsula, Da Nang is home to the largest population of Red-shanked Douc Langurs in the world. This intelligent, agile, and highly cohesive species is well-suited for sporting activities.

In most editions of the ASEAN Schools Games, the selection of the mascot typically reflects the hosting country's image. Therefore, in the second edition hosted in Vietnam, choosing the "Red-shanked Douc Langur" as the mascot not only embodies the deep cultural heritage but also represents the distinctive symbol of Da Nang city
